And when he makes a gaff, he’s often able to recover relatively well.
Valimaki is just sort of there. Hasn’t made enough of a case to bump either bottom pair player.

Yup, there really isn't that much difference in what both bring. Avg to below avg defensively, and offensively.
Tie breaker going to the bigger, more physical, and experienced dman.
